First let me say, GREAT EYE for finding this in your change as many people have no clue. Second.. to find one in circulation is just about IMPOSSIBLE, this had to have been added recently from someones change jar from many many years ago. From what I can see, it looks like a Near Gem BU for condition. Please be advised that there are more than 15 noted varieties of the 72 DDO, and based on the date doubling of yours (from what I can see), I don't think this is the "Big Money" one, although it does have terrific doubling elsewhere, it is still highly sort after. I do beleive it is worthy of slabbing, perhaps PCGS. My guestimate on resale value is around 400.00-500.00.
Congrats to you on your find!!.
